Knauff multifinish - anyone used it?

[happyplasterer]

Can pick some of this up today but heard it's a nightmare to use, anyone tried it?
Don't want to get a load and find it's useless, especially at £20 a bag!

Cheers Ray, yeah that's what I'd heard too. Gave the customer the option and thankfully they said no as not in a hurry.
More painting woodwork in my house this week then, got a couple of render jobs after that then hopefully normal plaster will be less like rocking horse s**t!

And great time to bring out the ad when I can't get hold of plaster for love, money or sexual favours

Will you be rebranded as the “frustrated” plasterer soon then.

What is the general opinion on Knauff? I can get hold of 40 bags of that or a polish brand Cekol...has anyone used it?

in the Netherlands we only use Knauf/Gips, gold or black band as a base coat like bonding.
you can use it as a finish coat with the same application as Thistle universal plaster.
